“MY 1999 DODGE DURANGO HAS A LEAKING GAS LINE HOSE THAT GOES TO THE FUEL TANK. THE COMPLAINT I HAVE IS THAT I CHECKED WITH 2 DODGE DEALERSHIPS AND BOTH TOLD ME THAT THE HOSES WERE NOT AVAILABLE AND NOT MADE ANYMORE. THE ONE THAT IS LEAKING IS THE FILLER HOSE THAT IS 14" LONG AND HAS A 1" I.D. IT LOOKS LIKE IT HAS BEEN RUBBING AGAINST SOMETHING AND IS GETTING GOUGED UP AND NOW HAS A HOLE IN IT. I HAVE CHECK WITH AUTO PARTS PLACES AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS NOT A COMMON GAS LINE FILLER HOSE. I KNOW THE VEHICLE IS OVER 7 YRS OLD, BUT ONLY HAVE 76500 MILES ON IT. I ASK ONE DEALERSHIP WHAT WAS I SUPPOSED TO DO, JUNK MY VEHICLE, AND HE SAID YES THAT SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD IDEA. PLEASE HELP. I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO FIND OUT IF THERE ARE ANY OTHER PEOPLE THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM, AND ANY OTHER RECALLS. THIS SUV WAS BOUGHT BY MY SON, NEW IN 1999, AND I PURCHASED IT FROM HIM IN 12/2004 WITH 50,000 MILES ON IT. *TR”

“MY DODGE DURANGO (1999) STARTED STALLING AT RANDOM TIMES TWO SUMMERS AGO. IT TOOK ME MANY TRIPS TO THE DEALER AND ALOT OF RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND A YELL FEST WITH THE DODGE FIELD REP. BUT I GOT IT FIXED. THEY HAD NO IDEA WHAT WAS WRONG WITH IT, IT IS THE PCM(POWER CONTROL MODULE).....FINALLY CONVINCED THEM THEY DIDN'T WANT A LAWSUIT ON THEIR HANDS IF MY FAMILY WAS KILLED DUE TO THIS MAJOR DEFECT IN DURANGOS, MAINLY 1999 FROM WHAT I HAVE READ. PCM REPLACED, NO PROBLEMS WITH STALLING SINCE. *TR”
